Santosh Meena, Head of Research, Swastika Investmart Ltd. said, "Hariom Pipes Ltd. has debuted on the secondary market at Rs. 220 with a handsome gain of 43 percent. The company’s good listing can be attributed to good market sentiments and good prospects for the Steel Pipes industry. The company has an integrated nature of operations, a cost-effective process and an experienced management team, however, the cyclical nature of the industry, and commoditized nature of products make it suitable only for the aggressive investors in the long term. Those who applied for listing gains can maintain a stop loss of Rs.195."
